An internal legal email from May 2020 between White & Case attorneys and an unidentified party discussing the Epstein estate's possession of photographs and surveillance videos from his properties.
This is a legal correspondence between White & Case LLP attorneys (Andrew Tomback and Marc A. Weinstein) and an unidentified party, likely representing victims or investigators. The email chain from May 2020 discusses a request for photographs and videos in the Epstein estate's possession. The attorneys indicate that the estate was unaware of any historical surveillance videos (stating that such footage is regularly overwritten), and that photographs existed in the Florida and New Mexico properties that had not been subject to search warrants. The discussion of surveillance videos is particularly notable given the widespread speculation about Epstein recording visitors at his properties.

Cc: Subject: RE: follow-up question Mark, Andy, Tomback, Andrew One question I had meant to ask in our call but forgot, on a separate subject — we had briefly discussed in late February our request for photographs and videos in the possession of the estate, and my recollection is that with respect to videos, the estate and trustees were not aware of being in possession of any historical surveillance-type videos (and in particular that any such surveillance video is regularly over-written, and so would not currently exist for any time before, for example, Epstein's suicide), and that separately the estate and trustees were not aware of being in possession of other physical video recordings. My recollection is that with respect to photographs, that there were some photographs in the properties that had not been the subject of physical search warrants, i.e., the Florida and New Mexico residences. I think we had discussed that EFTA00026530
the most efficient step, in the first instance, would be for us to receive digital photos of those physical photographs, to whatever extent they exist, but that doing so was not immediately possible at the time of our conversation in late February due to the estate's then-inability to retain or engage anyone to do that. In the first instance, please let me know if I am getting any of that wrong, and second, understanding that the circumstances of the pandemic may have affected this in the interim, we've been asked to again check with you about whether there is anyone currently working at (or reasonably able to go to) those properties who could convey photographs of any physical photos at those locations? If you could please let us know any sense of possibility / timing on that last outstanding request. thanks, Assistant U.S. Attorney Southern District of New York This email communication is confidential and is intended only for the individual(s) or entity named above and others who have been specifically authorized to receive it.
